 Hey Guys for those that might want one of these here is a 1961 Sunroof Beetle. Needs work, but it looks like it's mostly there. Hey looks like it's near Marks, Jim & Greg's truf.

You buy your own bus, and do what you want to your bus. I'll do what I want to so with mine. Pissing off purists one modification at at time.

No Problem Replacing the Pans, etc. Just get Jack and Patrick to replace them for you and while there at it ask them to replace the Farmehead too. Then you can sell it and make some bucks and forget about those that took their time and talent to rebuild a car for you.

Hey it actually happens!  !fright!

Or like any of us do it yourself and build the car of your dreams.   (love

If anyone is interested I can check it out, possibly save you a trip. Right now I don't need any more projects.
Thanks for the post Jay.
I don't know how fast my car will go.
It's more important that I know how fast my car will stop.

That is a nice little project car there. Looks right up Jays alley. Chopped and slammed- that thing would be killer!

 Yeah i called on it very nice lady she knows her VWs , I'm going to see it . ya think thats a good price its' motor is seized ?

Bugaru "JAY"

 Yea-aaaa it's a decent price, but be perpared to put alot more into it. But if you have the desire, the time and the talent, it could be a nice ride when finished. You need to make a decision if you want to build a car into something special and have the resorces to do so, cash on hand, an indoor space to wrench, etc. The price is probably somewhat neg but even at that I see another few grand needed to make this thing a runner.   shocked

If your going to attempt a build please try to do the car justice and do it correctly as it's not always what meets the eye that challenges us in life.  gifsawsall

As like many of us, I'm all about building a Different kind of VDub. What I mean is that these cars are getting very hard to find, so if your going to undertake the challenge we only ask that you stick with it and build it into what suits your dreams, and vision. If you need help that's what we'll here for. The problem is what we don't always see is the endless line of UPS trucks coming down the road, thus   d-s d-s d-s so sometimes it's a good idea to weigh things out. Meaning a good project car, vers a soild running car that needs some updates, customizing etc to get it on the road and a  vwlogo driver. In todays time there are some very good deals out there.

  Jay ,
There are alot of deals out there , and maybe better ones to come along . But most of them are not selling . As you know i have been keeping my eyes open . I talked to the fella with the 67 in browns mills , that car is in vary bad shape and he wants alot of money for the condition it's in . I did find a 69 that runs with a little rust for 500.00 so i bought it . And one of my old friends gave me my old 67  back but it's in very bad shape .
So putting out a few bucks for a slidder rag top is not a problem , even just to hold on to it for a bit . 
I see some for Rags for sale in all price ranges and nothing is selling ?

Not sure what your exactly looking for but heres a quick idea for you. Try placing a Wanted add on our board for what floats your VDub Boat  s#r never know maybe someone knows of a car, or someone knows someone that knows someone who just might have what your looking for. Hey it can't hurt? Besides that many of our cars are imported from out of the area, as most of the forsale cars around here are Rusty Buckets.   weldface
